1700s Russia

I created a collection of 20 based on something I was interested in, naturally I went with something easy, European fashion set in the 18th century. This project brought light to what I need to work on, how fast I work, and overall just revealed my strengths and weaknesses. I started this outfit with 4 garments including and under shirt, corset, embroidered skirt, and draped overskirt, plus a kokoshnik (Russian headdress). Unfortunately I ran out of time and couldn't make the overskirt and kokoshnik. On this project I also experimented with textile manipulation doing macrame and embroidery.
